    Oh for the love of...how dumb can someone be? OF COURSE the crooks can get guns without checks. They been doing it for 300 years and will keep at it for another 300 regardless of the law!

    Well that was a waste of time! 2.5 guys talking in circles(Lucas was the half, he didn't say much) arguing over get/acquire, then moving on and not really saying anything. Guy tried to steer, Dan wouldn't answer, or obfuscated any answer he almost gave. Then constant overtalking each other and interrupting, may as well have listened to four hours of Bob and atom laughing at each other?

    I was afraid of this. This guy visited Jim Lucas' FB page a few time leading up to this. For every question he'd ask, he got s numberof decent,polite answers, knocking down every point he asserted. The next thing you'd know, he'd be back like he'd never read a thing.

    Been out . . . got back . . . and nobody brought up the IN Supreme Court decision regarding open or concealed carry alone isn't reasonable suspicion to demand to see LTCH?

    I'm going to listen to the recording on line . . . if for no other reason than the entertainment value.

    Was that "Piner, or Pinter"?

    If so, they mentioned they only had so much time.

    The show was hard to listen. It was a train wreak from the begin that could not get back on the rails. If you were not a gun person you probably walk away with nothing.

    As for the discussion of "acquire", "get", and "well, I'm a firefighter not a lawyer"....

    I'm sure the comment was meant to appeal to the blue collar worker of the state.
    I'm a blue collar worker.
    When I hire a plumber, I expect a guy to know his tools and how to use them. And know the rules/laws the apply.
    When I hire an electrican, I expect a guy to know his tools and how to use them. And know the rules/laws the apply.
    And here's the thing....
    When I hire a politican, I expect a guy to know his tools and how to use them. And know the rules/laws the apply.
    So... if you're trying to decide LAW, you should probably NOT be arguing that "get" and "acquire" are different, especially WHEN THEY'RE NOT!

    I caught parts of it while out and about. Irvington and Fountain Square? Mostly hipsters and the like. That would explain how this guy got voted into office. I'd want this guy around if I was a State Rep, I'd look like a Rhodes Scholar sitting next to him. NRA-PVF gave him a C.

    I've seen people get stupid, but I don't think I've ever seen someone acquire stupid.

    I thought it would be brought up as it's related to CC and some of the pundits at the time stated it would create a de facto version of CC if cops couldn't demand you produce one if they suspect you're carrying. I've got my own concerns regarding CC as it potentially complicates national reciprocity if not in legislation, but in practice. The cost of a lifetime LTCH should be revisited but it's a revenue stream so driving it down is a Sysiphean Task pushing in the opposite direction.

    and he's a firefighter, he works for a living. I almost came off the sofa with that one.
    Actually, if you call working for a living, collecting a tax payer funded paycheck while your detailed to session work, summer study committee’s, winter study committee’s and the like he would be correct. However, Mr. obnoxiously socialist forestal works about 15-20 shifts a year.

    After listening, to this argument, for 15 minutes, I turned off the car, and went inside to calm down, before work .....

    And knowing this was in the making I avoided it. I got the blow by blow from you guys.
    Left thinking on these matters has no merit. The facts are mace up/skewed to fit the rhetoric. Sound bites and talking points. Run the opposition in circles until they give up. It is an art form that only the absolute most accomplished spin masters have mastered.
